An example of natural selection is the red color of a male cardinal. The females of the species choose mates based on the vibran

t colors of the males’ feathers. If females begin using different criteria than feather color when they choose mates, what would most likely happen to the color of the male cardinals over time? increased variation in the shades of red because the selection pressure has been relieved increased variation in the shades of red because the cardinals try different ways to impress the females decreased variation in the shades of red because no form of the trait is advantageous decreased variation in the shades of red because the only reason for variation was selection pressure

3. Decreased variation in the shades of red because no form of the trait is advantageous.

Answer:

Option D, decreased variation in the shades of red because the only reason for variation was selection pressure

Explanation:

Certain factors which make an organism with in its species selective over other which provide an added leap of survival over others.  

Here, red color of male cardinal has only purpose and this purpose is to attract females thereby making themselves a selective species over other male species.  

Now, if somehow females start selecting males on the basis of some other characteristics then it is sure that the variations in the color of male cardinals will gradually slow down and eventually will stop as selective pressure was the only cause of their variation.

Hence, option D is correct

What are the biological structures
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:Biological structures are able to adapt their growth to external mechanical stimuli and impacts. For example, when plants are under external loads, such as wind force and self-weight, the overloaded zones are reinforced by local growth acceleration and the unloaded zones stop growing or even shrink. Such phenomena are recorded in the annual rings of trees. Through his observation of the stems of spruce, K. Metzger, a German forester and author, realized that the final goal of the adaptive growth exhibited by biological structures over time is to achieve uniform stress distribution within them. He published his discovery in 1893.12 A team of scientists at Karlsruhe Research Centre adopted Metzger's observations and developed them to one single design rule: the axiom of uniform stress. The methods derived from this rule are simple and brutally successful like nature itself. An excellent account of the uniform-stress axiom and the optimization methods derived from it is given by Claus Mattheck in his book ‘Design in Nature’.13 The present study utilizes one of these methods, stress-induced material transformation (SMT), to optimize the cavity shape of dental restorations.

in a well-fed state, brain cells use which one of the following compounds circulating in the blood stream almost exclusively as
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Glucose is virtually the sole fuel for the human brain, except during prolonged starvation. The brain lacks fuel stores, thus requires a continuous supply of glucose. It consumes about 120 g daily which corresponds to an energy input of 420 kcal (1760 KJ), accounting for some 60% of the utilization of glucose by the whole body in the resting state.
